Still sick

Well, when I wrote the last post on Sunday, I was really hoping for some healthy kids.  Wishful thinking. Sure enough, that very night, Aubrey woke up with a tummy ache and proceeded to vomit all night. Henry woke up with a very high fever, and nobody got any sleep.  Luckily, the vomiting only lasted until around noon the next day (and no one else got it, so maybe it was food related).  Henry just kept getting worse.  I took him to the Dr. on Tuesday and she said he had two really bad ear infections.  Because he had one about 5 weeks ago, she had to switch antibiotics and give him something more powerful.  Well, it has really upset his little tummy. He has no desire to nurse and it's a challenge to get down baby food too most of the time.  I got really concerned this morning after he still refused to nurse. So back to the Dr. we went.  Turns out his ears still look terrible.  So, we switched to a different antibiotic, I'm pumping like crazy, and praying he'll come back around to nursing soon. Could be his ears hurt so bad he doesn't want to suck.  He won't really take it from a bottle or sippy either.  He acts hungry, and seems interested, but after a few swallows, he just sits up and pushes away.  It's frustrating, but stressing certainly won't help, so I'm trying to just go with it and not worry about our routine until he feels better.  Now that is fever is gone, he does seem so much happier, just still not quite himself.  Feel better soon buddy!

Trying hard to play.  And yes, I will be cutting that hair this weekend!
